EA has moved from a practice for elite multinationals and governments to an essential tool in business planning, transformation and governance. It connects and aligns strategy with initiatives and IT Systems, information and infrastructure.

EA covers the domains of business, processes, application systems, information and technology. It aids in understanding current status, quick interventions that can deliver short term benefits, lowering risk, transformation of the organisation to meet challenges and realise long term goals as well as providing a platform for good governance.

The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) is the most widely adopted EA framework and methodology today: in government, private industry and non-profits. It draws on rich contributions from the Open Group's many members over more than a decade. It provides guidance in the establishment of an EA capability in an organisation, scoping EA activities, performing EA related projects and managing the outcomes into the delivery stage.

The Open Group administers a certification programme whereby successful attendees on accredited courses can become certified and registered TOGAF Architects.

This is an international qualification which is highly sought after.
Research into positions advertised shows that TOGAF certification is increasingly required and can add as much as US$10 000 or EUR 7 000 per year to an architect's remuneration package.

PROMIS Solutions (and its precursor organisations) have been providing thought leadership and practice in strategy, enterprise architecture, initiative management, process management and system delivery for 20+ years. We have over 30 years experience of designing and delivering effective industry training, from basics up to university Masters level.

PROMIS delivers EA consulting and training, but also developed and markets a leading web-based collaborative enterprise modeling toolset, Enterprise Value Architect (EVA) Netmodeler. We have created a fully integrated meta model (which TOGAF lacks) to allow us to achieve deep support for all TOGAF models and viewpoints within our toolset, which is Open Group certified.



PHILOSOPHY OF THE COURSE
TOGAF is a good method and provides generic guidance to most aspects of EA. Unfortunately, because it is so general, it is sometimes abstract and difficult for project staff to get to grips with. We set out to create a course which would bring the philosophy, principles and value of TOGAF to students in a practical way, so they could immediately grasp the significance in their own role and workplace. We drew upon our industry and training experience to design a course that shows how TOGAF is applied and used down the life cycle. We have also used our experience of designing comprehensive integrated meta models to ensure that all elements integrate well.

Our collaboration with Flipside enables us, for the first time, to bring this certification course to Malaysia. We look forward to working closely with you to further develop your Enterprise Architecture expertise.

TOGAF 9
TOGAF Version 9 Enterprise Edition ("TOGAF 9") represents an industry consensus framework and method for Enterprise Architecture that is available for use internally by any organization around the world, both members and non-members of The Open Group alike but subject to license conditions. For more information about TOGAF 9, please visit The Open Group.

2. TOGAF 9: Migration Overview

Key Learning Points
Attending this Course will enable you to :-
1. understand new concepts introduced in TOGAF9
2. understand the rationale behind employing Enterprise Architecture and using TOGAF9
3. have a detailed understanding of the development cycle and the techniques for architecture development

The formal part of the course is four and a half days, with an additional half day for coverage of tool requirements and exposure, if required. The course is classroom taught by a highly experienced instructor skilled in both EA and teaching.

Lectures are interspersed with more than 15 individual and group assignments, all based upon a real world derived case study of considerable depth and subtlety. Students are challenged to apply the principles taught into a realistic situation.

Note : The KL and Bangkok Course runs as a 5 day course.
The Singapore course runs as a 4 day course.





1. Those who require a deeper understanding of TOGAF 9
2. Those working in an organisation where TOGAF 9 has been adopted and who need to participate in architecture projects and initiatives
3. Architects responsible for developing architecture artifacts or who want to introduce TOGAF 9 into their practice

Successful candidates can come from a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences. We do not exclude any delegate who is strongly motivated to do the course, so there are no strict prerequisites. We do not recommend the course for junior personnel. You should have at least 5 years working experience or University level qualifications and have had exposure to IT and business. Candidates should already have, or be motivated to move
into, a role which requires enterprise level architectural thinking and
responsibility.
